Tip #157: CREATE FOCUS PULL SHOTS IN POST. Turning a blurred subject into a crisply focused one can make a shot more dynamic. The same is true if you go the other way: starting with an in-focus subject and blurring it during the shot. Changing focus—known as pulling focus—is easy to do while shooting, for example using FiLMiC Pro. But the effect can also be achieved in post-production. The two frames here—from “Thirsty?”—are from a post-production focus pull created with @Adobe_AfterEffects The director Oliver Richards (@olsburger) explains that it’s “Nothing complicated, just using the software’s blur tools that can be easily applied to individual layers.” In this case one layer captures the glass of beer; the second layer captures the video’s star, who happens to be played by the director. “Thirsty?” was chosen as a Mobile Movie of the Week. You can see it at MobileMovieMaking (link in profile). Accompanying the film is a fascinating interview with Oliver Richards. #mobilemoviemakingtips #focuspull #visualeffects #rackfocus @abodeaftereffects https://www.instagram.com/p/B2c2XxpBqcy/?igshid=ly57aub5wo08
